The welcome hamper receives mixed reviews, and while some guests mention issues with maintenance and amenities, the overall experience is positive.

The cottage is consistently described as spotlessly clean, with multiple reviews highlighting its immaculate interior, contributing to a high cleanliness score.

The location is frequently praised for its extraordinary beauty and tranquillity, though the long and narrow access road is a consideration for some. The presence of nearby shooting activities was a negative for one guest.

Comfort is generally well-regarded, with positive remarks about the peacefulness and the quality of the beds, although there are suggestions for better quality mattresses in the twin room.

Facilities are deemed excellent and well-equipped, but some guests experienced issues with internet access, TV reception, and a lack of hanging space in the second bedroom. The slippery outside path and low satellite dish were also noted.

The welcome hamper is mentioned in several reviews, with opinions varying from sparse to excellent local produce. It's important to note that while appreciated, such gifts are complimentary and subject to change.

    Beautiful cottage Unfortunately we had no water for 24hrs due to an ongoing mains water issue but it was resolved as quickly and safely as possible.

    Lovely comfy cottage with good facilities. A bit hard to find at first. Great hamper. The TV was hit and miss.

    Charming cottage, well equipped, immaculately clean. Totally quiet & peaceful. Spectacular views of the countryside. The track up to the cottage, through beautiful hill scenery, was 17 mins drive (single track, bumpy). My low car was not ideal. Welcome hamper excellent. It did say remote and it certainly is. My friends & I thoroughly enjoyed our stay away from the rat race!! Thank you.
